Standing at just 5-foot-3, he isn\u2019t the prototypical football player, let alone the prototypical quarterback.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">In fact, Lion\u2019s head coach Mark Huynh recalls the moment when Poot showed up for team tryouts a few years back. To put it bluntly, Huynh and his coaching staff had their doubts.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36899\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36899\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-36899\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?resize=450%2C533&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?w=879&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 879w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?resize=600%2C711&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?resize=211%2C250&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 211w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?resize=768%2C910&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_01web.jpg?resize=405%2C480&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 405w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36899\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Galileo quarterback Adrian Poot poses for a portrait at Galileo High School in San Francisco. Courtesy: Instagram\/allstar_legend_<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cHe came out freshman year and said, \u2018Coach, I want to try out for quarterback,\u2019\u201d said Huynh, smiling. \u201cAnd I looked at the coaches and we were like, \u2018No, no, not you, not you.\u2019 So we were laughing about that for a while and he kept working his butt off and one day a quarterback couldn\u2019t play the game, so he started that week. What we saw in practice was, \u2018Oh my gosh.\u2019 He\u2019s very commanding, very calm. Even though he\u2019s got a slight accent, he was strong with his voice, so we knew that\u2019s the quarterback of the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">It wasn\u2019t all that long ago that Poot decided to pursue football. A surprise to his family at first, they supported Poot\u2019s decision back when he was in middle school. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThey were surprised because I\u2019m small,\u201d Poot said of his family when they learned of his passion for football. \u201cBut they knew that I could be strong, be proud and yet humble playing this game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Poot and his family take pride in their Mayan ancestral roots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cPersonally, it feels very special for me, because I\u2019m the only child in the family to ever play football. Everyone else plays soccer and basketball, but I\u2019m the only one who plays American football,\u201d said Poot. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">It\u2019s been a few weeks now since Poot threw for two touchdowns in the championship game, but he still finds it hard to believe what happened that night in Calexico, CA, just a mile from the Mexican border.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36901\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36901\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_9164web.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-36901\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_9164web.jpg?resize=450%2C675&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_9164web.jpg?w=576&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 576w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_9164web.jpg?resize=167%2C250&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 167w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Adrian-Poot_9164web.jpg?resize=320%2C480&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36901\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Senior Galileo High School Lions quarterback Adrian Poot (#13), holds a certificate of honor as he poses for a photograph after the Lions football team is recognized at City Hall in Jan. 29, 2018.

I felt excitement just knowing that my son\u2019s team won. Thank God they went as far as they wanted\u2014til the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Galileo\u2019s victory is also an important accomplishment for San Francisco, an achievement that had never been done by any city school, public or private.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cI\u2019m just so proud,\u201d said District 5 Supervisor London Breed. The president of San Francisco\u2019s Board of Supervisors and a mayoral candidate, she is also a Galileo alumni. \u201cWhat a great team and what a great group of young men. They brought back a state championship, that means they defeated the best of the best in the whole state of California and to emerge in this way, to shine this incredible light on San Francisco, it means a lot. It just shows you what hard work can do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Among others at the evening\u2019s celebration was former 49ers defensive end and Super Bowl champion, Dennis Brown, who congratulated the team for their memorable accomplishment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cI think anything, as far as youth sports goes and in the city here, is important,\u201d said Brown. \u201cIt\u2019s important for these young athletes because this is the first time they\u2019ve won a state championship. These young men, these young athletes will be etched in history now for this high school. It\u2019s huge for them because it\u2019s going to build their self-esteem, their awareness and hopefully they\u2019ll build on this and do bigger things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">As for the starting quarterback, who has made a name for himself at Galileo, Poot plans to try out for the City College of San Francisco Rams football team. And if that doesn\u2019t work for him, he plans to start his own business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[su_heading size=&#8221;40&#8243; align=&#8221;left&#8221;]THE MAYAN LION[\/su_heading] [su_carousel source=&#8221;media: 36896,36897&#8243; limit=&#8221;65&#8243; link=&#8221;lightbox&#8221; target=&#8221;blank&#8221; width=&#8221;800&#8243; height=&#8221;540&#8243; responsive=&#8221;no&#8221; items=&#8221;1&#8243;][su_carousel limit=&#8221;65&#8243; link=&#8221;lightbox&#8221; target=&#8221;blank&#8221; width=&#8221;800&#8243; height=&#8221;540&#8243; responsive=&#8221;no&#8221; items=&#8221;1&#8243;] [\/su_carousel] Senior quarterback Adrian Poot and his Galileo High School football teammates celebrated Jan. 29 at City Hall, a feat no other San Francisco school had ever achieved: winning a state championship.
